There is no one else taking this over unless you are volunteering your time to do so. Your comments on what you expect OTHER people to do for YOU come across as we are all your slaves or serfs. I really expect that isn't your intention, but this mode of communication undermines everything you say. * Rolling back to older versions premodularity would bring a lot of packages which did not already build from source, which were outdated and broken in other places. Packages which are not 'integrated' as an operating system with the rest of the system. They would sit there and rot because it is clear that everyone wants to tell the cook how to make the dinner, but no one wants to help until it is served. And rolling back would again require someone to volunteer to do that work. > I stand by my position that buildroot-only content of any kind (buildroot- > only packages, buildroot-only modules, packages filtered from modules, etc.) > should just not be allowed in Fedora, ever.
